Be Comfortable at Home with a Well-Maintained Heating and Cooling System

Published on January 02, 2015

Maintaining your heating and cooling system can give you amazing benefits. Possibly one of the most clear qualities of a well-maintained HVAC system is its capacity to achieve indoor comfort effortlessly, regardless of the weather outside. Find out how to discover the many ways you can enjoy greater comfort at home when your heating and cooling systems are maintained throughout the year.

Cleaner Air

One major component of routine maintenance for your heating and cooling system involves swapping your furnace filter and cleaning out your furnace and air conditioner. These tasks are key for two reasons: a cleaner HVAC system will function more efficiently and it will circulate cleaner air throughout your home. When your HVAC system is nasty, the dirt and dust that filters inside system can be circulated with heated and cooled air as it is distributed to your vents. This means your family is constantly breathing in air that is of a lower quality because your HVAC system is not well-maintained. Making certain that your furnace and air conditioner are clean at all times will reduce airborne contaminants for greater comfort and health.

Quieter Function

In addition to adding heated or cooled air to your home, your HVAC system can also add something else—noise. While you can expect some noise associated with furnace and air conditioner operation, a poorly-maintained system will produce more noise as it works. Noise can be due to loose parts, failing belts, and a number of other factors that are addressed during regular tune-ups. Failing parts may even cause very disruptive noises, such as clangs, bangs, screeches, and grinding noises. All of these noises will disrupt the peace and quiet in your home. By maintaining your HVAC system regularly, you’ll elude these noisy situations to ensure that your furnace and air conditioner run quietly to create a more relaxing home environment throughout the year.

Better Humidity Control

One of the most common wintertime complaints is dry air inside the home. Many furnaces tend to dry out the air during the heating process, bringing on irritation of the skin, eyes, nose, and mouth. If your furnace uses a humidifier to sustain a comfortable level of humidity throughout the winter, your system calls for regular cleaning and maintenance as well. If your humidifier becomes clogged, dirty, or damaged, it won’t operate properly and you’ll be left with dry air inside your home. Talk to your HVAC service professional during your furnace tune-up about checking and cleaning your humidifier as well. In many cases, your humidifier’s water source may need to be turned on, as it may be turned off during the summer when added humidity is unneeded. Making sure your humidifier is maintained right along with your heating system will increase your indoor comfort levels during the heating season.
